Why is physical, half-court basketball so frequently described as "ugly" by so many people? No matter how efficient and fundamentally sound it may be, it is "ugly basketball."
To me, that sloppy, wide-open, playground style is what is ugly. (Faster-paced ball is not always sloppy, and that is not what I am talking about - but the vast majority of the times it will be.) But you will never hear it described as ugly by the pundits, no matter how sloppy it gets. It is always "exciting." Humbug! To me it is just bad basketball.
